IIS URL rewrite to access subfolder content

Is it possible to create a URL rewrite that places the content of a subfolder in the root?

Example:

/pages/article1 would be reached from /article1

/pages/otherstuff would be reached from /otherstuff

I don't want to use virtual directories, because we're talking about hundreds of static pages in the /pages folder.

I found the answer myself... This did the trick:

<rule name="RemoveSEOFolder" stopProcessing="true">
    <match url="^seo$|^seo/(.*)$" />
    <conditions>
    </conditions>
    <action type="Redirect" url="seo/{R:1}" />
</rule>
<rule name="RewriteToFile">
    <match url="^(?!seo/)(.*)" />
    <conditions>
        <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
        <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
    </conditions>
    <action type="Rewrite" url="seo/{R:1}" />
</rule>
